Have no fear, Grubkiller is here.
Hey folks.
Here's chapter 4.
I'm going to refocus on the de-facto Cold War between the Galactic Republic and Sith Imperium.
BTW, I re-edited parts of Chapter 2. Read it to see what I changed.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
One week after the previous chapter.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Malachor, Ancient Sith Planet, near the site of the Sith Temple.
Ever since the Sith Imperium ripped this temple out of Maul's hands, they've been making themselves right at home.
The Sith had set up a perimeter around the pyramid.
Their Death Troopers patrolled the region at all times.
Buildings had been set up all over. Elevated landing pads, gun towers, and sniper perches. Above the hollow ash surface, Imperial fighters from Warships in orbit flew above the surface constantly to ward off suspicion from outsiders, namely the Republic.
Sith defenses were built to keep out large attack forces.
But not small group infiltration.
A few miles away on the surface, out of the watchful eyes of the Imperium, a squadron of Clone Commandoes from the Republic Spec. ops brigade were cutting a hole into the surface.
"All right boys, are you almost through?" Delta 38 (Boss) asked.
Delta-62 (Scorch) and Delta-40 (Fixer) were busy cutting into the hollow surface with laser cutters.
"Almost there sir," Fixer reassured.
"Ya' know...we'd be through here a lot faster if we used some explosives," Scorch said.
"I know that soldier. But I also know that your unhealthy love of explosions'll wake up half a' the Sith Empire," Boss said. "So keep cutting".
"Heh. Gotta love those odds," Delta-07 (Sev) said, fantasizing about adding more digits to his kill count.
When Fixer and Scorch were down cutting through the surface, the section they cut out fell down a few dozen yards to the real surface of the planet.
"Got it," Scorch said triumphantly. "I told you we didn't need explosives".
"Yeah right," Sev said.
"Cut the chatter and prepare to rappel down," Fixer ordered.
As he and the two troopers set up the cables they were going to use to get to the surface, Boss used his com-link to get on the horn with their stealth shuttle in orbit.
"Advisor. We've cut through the surface and are preparing to rappel down. How copy, over." Boss informed.
"Affirmative. When you get down there, head 5 clicks due east. That's where the energy buildup was detected. Over?" Delta Advisor said.
"Copy that. We'll check in when we've found it. Delta Lead out," Boss said before he followed his squad down the hole.
Delta squad was sent to the planet to check out the origins of a massive energy burst. That burst led to a shockwave that wiped out the majority of the Yuuzhan Vong Species.
So the egg-heads working for the Republic Military wanted to find out its origins. When they found it, Delta Squad was sent to investigate.
They reached the surface.
They looked around.
"Wow, this place gives me the creeps," Scorch said.
"What's the matter? Afraid of the dark?" Sev asked.
"Alright Delta. Activate night vision. Fixer. You have the scanner. You're on point," Boss ordered.
"Yes Sir," Fixer said as he led the squad towards the origin of the energy burst.
After passing through the ash statues and ruins from the times of the ancient Jedi-Sith Wars, they finally found a ridge that overlooked A massive black pyramid, with a Maroon top. It had lights that glowed red.
The Commandoes looked with interest.
"Wow. Would ya' look at that," Scorch said in awe.
"Yeah...I see targets everywhere," Sev said uninterested in the architecture, as he looked at the Imperial troopers and warriors that the place was crawling with.
Fixer's scanner started acting up.
"Sir...if I'm reading this right, then that's the origin of the shockwave that killed the Vong," Fixer said.
"Are you positive?" Boss asked.
Fixer nodded.
"Everyone record what you see," Boss ordered before he spoke into his com-link. "Advisor...do you read me?"
Advisor's voice came in somewhat staticky. It must've been the layer of ash that covered the surface of the planet.
"I copy Delta Lead. What have you got to report?"
Boss spoke back into the com-link.
"Sir...we found it".

Jedi Council Chamber, Coruscant.
The members of the Jedi Council, and a hologram of Chancellor Dalyell, Vice-Chancellor Mas Amedda, and the joint chiefs, were speaking to a hologram of Delta Squad and their advisor.
A hologram of the Sith Pyramid was on display.
"Troopers. Found the origin of the Vong's defeat have you?" Yoda asked.
"Yes sir," the Advisor said. "And we discovered that the structure was being heavily guarded by armored troopers belonging to the Sith".
The Council members all looked at each other.
"Then this confirms our suspicions. Palpatine and his forces really are responsible for the destruction of the Vong," Mace Windu said.
"Which means they can wipe us out whenever they want," Master Shaak Ti said.
"Then I think we should put a fleet, and an expeditionary force together, and be ready to launch an attack on Malachor," Dalyell stated.
Everyone looked at Dalyell
"But Chancellor, are you sure that's a good idea? That will provoke the Sith into attacking us," Obi-Wan said.
"Master Jedi, this council, of all people, should know that the Jedi's been at war with the Sith for Millenia. They are too dangerous," Dalyell said.
"Chancellor. These military adventures of your's are what's dangerous. Our people will not appreciate this war one bit," Amedda said.
Dalyell and Amedda looked at each other.
"Vice-Chairman. This is not about popularity. It's about the survival of the Republic," Dalyell said.
They looked at each other. They were rivals.
Master Mundi's hologram stood up, as if to ease the tension.
"Well, I for one believe that the Chancellor is correct. We must at least be prepared to strike Malachor, should the need arise," Mundi said.
"All in favor," Windu said.
Most of the Council members said 'Aye', to voice their support.
"It's settled then. Master Kenobi? I want you and Master Secura to take your forces, and a fleet of warships, and be prepared to strike the planet," Mace said.
Obi-wan bowed. "Yes Master".
"And Advisor? get your men out of there and return to base," Mace said to the Clone commandoes before their hologram disappeared. He then turned to the holograms of Plo Koon and Ki-Adi Mundi.
"Master Plo? What's your status of the operation?" Mace asked.
Plo Koon and Ki-adi Mundi were taking a fleet of Republic warships to invade and conquer the last remaining Vong stronghold: The living planet Zenoma Sekot.
"We've been in contact with forces belonging to the Chiss Ascendancy. They are tracking Zenoma Sekot. Our forces are going to be rendezvousing with a Chiss fleet led by an Admiral Thrawn. We should be there within the next 20 standard hours," Master Plo's holographic version said.
"Very well. May the Force be with you masters," Yoda said.
Ki and Plo bowed before their holograms disappeared.
"Well if that's all, then this council is adjourned," Mace said.
The holograms of other people disappeared. Then the Council members began to file out of the room.
Yoda stroked his chin in deep thought.
Obi-Wan and Mace noticed this and walked up to him.
"Master. Are you alright?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Dark times we live in," Yoda said.
"Do you believe that there is way through this?" Mace asked.
"Mmmmm, uncertain I am. Clouded everything is. Difficult to see the future it is. Only time will tell," Yoda said.
They all looked at each other.
This was quite concerning.

Palpatine's weekly Holonet address from an undisclosed location.
"People of the galaxy. Dalyell's Military Junta has, once again, shown their blatant disregard for sentient life. On planets such as Antar and Ando, people have been brutalized, simply for standing up to the oppression of the Republic military. Dalyell's dictatorship, and his Jedi attack dogs, must be stopped. The Sith Imperium stands with the people of the galaxy. We will work everyday to stand up for the people, against the Chancellor and his gang of thugs and criminals.
I want to be very clear: I love Democracy. I love the Republic. But I hate what it has become. The Republic is no longer democratic. The once noble institution has been usurped by the Jedi and replaced with a Military Dictatorship. And despite the Senate's best efforts, they are not enough to remove Dalyell or the Jedi's influence.
It is time for the people to take matters into their own hands. It is time for the Sith Imperium and the people of the Galaxy to come together and bring down the pillars of corruption that hold the Republic up. It is time for us to replace it with something else. Something much more pure. To Arms! People of the Galaxy, it is time to rise up. It is time for you to reclaim what rightfully belongs to you: Your freedom, your security, your peace, your prosperity, and your dignity.
The Republic's time is at an end. Our's is just beginning!"

Republic Judiciary Central Detention, maximum security prison, Coruscant.
In the Republic most heavily guarded prison, pirates, bounty hunters, and terrorists were under heavy guard from Officers from the Coruscant Security Force.
The officers stood guard.
Small teams patrolled the perimeter and the entry points.
Their weapons were set to stun. The less dangerous Prisoners were allowed req time and could go to the mess hall.
But the more dangerous prisoners, or most valuable, were kept under heavy guard and were confined to their cells.
The most dangerous of them all was a Mirilian dark sider that was convicted of crimes against the Republic.
The crime was the terrorist bombing of the Jedi Temple in the third year of the Clone Wars.
Her name was Barriss Offee.
She sat on the floor in the middle of her cell and meditated.
No one inside the prison was going to allow her to escape.
Of coarse...the key words are 'one inside the prison'.
Outside of the prison, a pair of guards from the CSF were on duty, protecting a street level entrance into the prison.
For a while nothing happened, as was usually the case.
But that's when one of them saw a cloaked figure approaching them.
"Hey, check it out," he said to his fellow guard.
The other guard looked.
He saw what looked to be a Chiss Girl in her early twenties. She was wearing a hooded red cloak. The cloak was parted in front, revealing what she was wearing underneath: A red Bra and Panties, and nothing else. She had a beautiful hourglass figure, and her large breasts jiggled inside of her bra as she walked. Her hips swayed from side to side.
"Well Hello-ho-ho. Is it my birthday?" He joked.
When the girl was right in front of them, they could see her pupil-less red eyes, and her shoulder-length even colored hair.
"Hello there little lady. What brings you out here on this beautiful night?" One guard asked.
She looked at them. "It must be quite boring to be out on guard duty. I was wondering if i could show you a good time?" She said as she went up to on of the guards, pressed her body against his, and hung her arms around his neck.
He smirked. "I can have a good time," he said before he pressed his lips against her's and ran his hands up and down her naked waist.
The other guard stood behind her, pressed his bulge against her rump, and placed his hands on her breasts, which he began to squeeze.
The Chiss girl moaned as she reached inside of her cloak and pulled out two metallic cylinders.
She pointed one at the guard making out with her, and reached behind her to point the other one at the guard squeezing her breasts.
She pressed a button, and red light speared through both guards.
They gasped and looked down at their torsos.
The Chiss girl smiled and withdrew her blades from the dying guards, who collapsed to the ground.
"It's been fun boys. But I have business inside," she said as she took one of their key cards and used it to open the door.
She moved throughout the prison, avoiding patrols as she moved.
Her target was the main control center. She crawled through the ventilation system until she was above it.
One guard was holding a steaming cup of caf.
Another one was sleeping at the security station.
They didn't suspect a thing.
Good.
She jumped down through the vent and went to work cutting everyone apart.
When they were all dead, she pressed a button that opened almost every cell in the prison.
Prisoners ran out of their cells and overrun the guards.
Guards were beaten, shanked, or shot to death by the most brutal criminals in Republic space.
Alarms wailed throughout the prison. The remaining guards dressed in riot gear to try and contain the prisoners, but to no avail.
Soon, the prisoners had armed themselves and were getting to work, taking over the prison. A few prisoners, however, decided not to stick around, and left when the coast was clear.
Back in the control room, the Chiss figure went to go where the real bad prisoners were held.
She only managed to open the cells of the low tier prisoners.
She walked through the prison, watching as it erupted into utter pandemonium.
Everywhere she looked or went, prisoners were having their way with the place. The guards put up a fight, but they were overrun. They couldn't be co-ordinated properly, because the control center was already compromised. That meant no ray shields, no cameras, and no PA system.
The guards were blind. And eventually, they were driven out, killed, or worse.
The Chiss girl continued to walk through the prison. Her outfit, or lack thereof, attracted some unwanted attention.
A gang saw her coming and they decided to block off her way.
Some of the prisoners catcalled her.
They whistled inappropriately.
Some clapped.
"Hey baby, where are you off to in such a hurry?" He asked as he went to reach out to her breasts.
Before he could, the Chiss girl reached out and used the force to lift him in the air and crush his windpipe.
As he gasped for air and kick his feet, the other prisoners backed away in fear.
The Chiss girl crushed his windpipe and threw him to the side.
"Anyone else?" She asked.
They all took a step back or ran down the hall in fear.
One prisoner just looked at her.
She looked at him with a gaze that could cut through durasteel.
"I'm both terrified and aroused," he said.
She smiled at him and blushed a little before she continued on her way.
Barriss Offee, AKA the seventh sister, waited in her cell.
Through the force, she could see the mass chaos that had erupted throughout the prison.
But none of it had reached her part of the prison.
Not yet.
That's when she heard the sounds of blaster fire and yelling outside.
"Who the Hell is that?" One guard yelled out.
"Who the Hell cares? She's trying to kill us! So kill her back!" Another guard yelled.
Blaster fire continued to echo through the corridors and illuminate the walls with blue light.
Barriss could hear the sound of a lightsaber humming, and the sounds of cutting and grunting.
Then she heard the sound of bodies hitting the floor.
That's when she saw the cell door open and the ray shield deactivate.
Barriss was confused. But then she saw a half-naked Chiss Girl enter the cell.
"Darth Xuadia! I must saw that it's good to see you again. Very good to see you," Barriss said, giving Xuadia's body a quick scan.
Xuadia smiled seductively.
"Mmmm. It's good to see you too," Xuadia said before she walked and pressed her body against's Barriss'. She then smashed her lips against Barriss'.
Her eyes shot open in surprise. But then she puckered her lips and returned Xuadia's kiss.
After a few minutes, Xuadia slid her tongue into Barriss's mouth. Then she ran her hands up Barriss' body until she rested them on her large breasts.
Barriss broke the kiss and blushed. But Xuadia continued to press her body against Barriss'.
"Uhhhmm...mistress. I don't think that this is the best time," she said.
Barriss then felt all of the buttons on her skin tight prison jumpsuit break off. The suit was then yanked down her body, forcefully revealing her entire olive colored body.
She looked down in surprise and blushed. All she had on was a purple bra and a matching pair of panties...and nothing else.
Xuadia smiled and let her cloak fall off of her body. She then reached behind her to unbuckle her bra.
"Hmmm. I disagree," she said as her bra fell to the floor, letting her massive breasts jump out to say hello.
Xuadia then went to the back wall and stretched her arms over her body.
"Do with me as you please," she said as she closed her eyes, arched her back, and pushed her blue breasts out.
The seventh sister looked at Xuadia's massive tits, and then she blushed when she realized that she was staring.
"It's okay my love. I don't bite," Xuadia said, her eyes still closed as she continued presenting.
Barriss thought about and decided that maybe it wouldn't hurt.
She got up and walked over to the topless Chiss girl.
Her breasts jiggled inside of her purple bra as she walked over.
When she was right in front of her friend, she looked down at Xuadia's boobs.
She reached out with both hands and rested them on the pair of royal blue melons.
They were so warm, not to mention soft...except for her nipples.
Barriss was so focused on the two tits that she was touching, that she didn't realize that she had started squeezing them.
Xuadia sighed and opened her eyes. She looked at Barriss, who continued to knead her breasts.
"Mmmmm. Are you enjoying yourself Barriss?" Xuadia asked.
Barriss nodded as she continued to squeeze her blue friend's breasts.
Xuadia smiled and reached for the buckle that held Barriss' bra.
"Good..." she said as Barriss' bra fell to the floor, freeing her jiggling olive melons. Xuadia pressed up against Barriss, smashing their breasts and stomachs together. "...because you're about to enjoy it more".
She smashed her lips against Barriss'.
Both ladies parted their lips to allow each other to gain entry with their tongues.
Xuadia broke the kiss and sat down on Barriss' prison cot.
Barriss still stood up, but it was so that she could remove what remained of her clothing. She pulled her panties down. Xuadia the same with her own panties as Barriss sat down on the bed next to her.
Barriss and Xuadia looked into each other's eyes.
That's when Barriss pushed her lips against Xuadia's. As their hands began to roam each other's bodies, Barriss pushed her lover onto the bed, with her on top.
She laid on top of Xuadia and she began to rub herself up against her as they continued to make out.
After a few minutes of making out, Barriss began to plant kisses on Xuadia's body until she reached her breasts.
She squeezed them with her hands, admiring how soft they were, before she pressed her lips against Xuadia's nipple, which was the only thing on those tits that weren't soft.
She continued to suck on it before giving the other one the same treatment.
Xuadia was moaning in pleasure the entire time after throwing her head back.
Barriss then straddled Xuadia's hips.
She smiled as she began to ride her waist.
Both of them moaned in pleasure as their nether regions rubbed against each other's.
Xuadia propped herself up and buried her face in between Barriss' breasts.
Barriss threw her head back and groaned in pure ecstasy.
That's when both ladies had their orgasms.
They collapsed onto the bed, their lips locked together.
As they laid in the bed next to each other, they started licking each other's lips.
"That was amazing," Barriss said before she licked Xuadia's lips again.
"Mmmm. I'm curious. Didn't you want to have a similar relationship with that Ahsoka Tano?" Xuadia asked as she brushed her hand up and down Barriss' body.
Barriss looked up at the ceiling in contemplation. She sighed.
"Yes. But unfortunately, she and that human lover of her's escaped my ship before we could make anything of it," she said. (Escaping the Part. Either version'll do)
Xuadia smiled. "Too bad," as she got into the 69 position next to Barriss.
They then went to town on each other, burying their tongues into each other's nether regions.
After a few minutes, they both moaned as they orgasmed again, tasting each other's juices.
When they were done, Xuadia mounted Barriss' waist, straddling her.
They looked at each other and smiled, before Xuadia placed her hands on Barriss' breasts, smashing them down.
That's when Xuadia began to writhe against Barriss' waist.
Barriss threw her head back as pleasure began to build up and sweep through her body.
She moaned as Xuadia continued to ride her and squeeze her olive breasts. Xuadia sighed very loudly as she writhed on Barriss.
After a few minutes, Xuadia laid down and began to make out with Barriss.
That's when she used the force to lift both of them up into the air.
Barriss noticed this and pulled herself up so that she could hold Xuadia for dear life.
Xuadia continued to hump the moaning mirilian as they floated in midair.
As her orgasm started to come along, she could no longer hold either of them.
Xuadia moaned loudly before they fell onto the bed, with Barriss on top.
Waisting no time, Barriss buried her face into Xuadia's chest and began to mercilessly hump against her hips.
Xuadia threw her head back and sighed somewhat loudly as the two nude ladies rubbed their slippery bodies against each other's.
"Mistress!" Barriss moaned into Xuadia's breasts. "I love you, Mistress!"
"That's a good girl," Xuadia said as she reached up to stroke the hair of the girl that was vigorously humping her. "Nnnnh," Xuadia moaned as she leaned her head back into the pillow before she closed her eyes, allowing herself to be taken by her olive lover. "You've learned quite fast". She gasped again. "You're going to please Lord Vader quite well".
"Thank you Mistress! I-OH! UHHH!" Barriss moaned out as a white blur filled her vision as she and Xuadia's orgasms rocked through their beautiful bodies.
They moaned loudly as they came hard.
When they were done, Barriss collapsed onto the bed next to Xuadia.
Their massive breasts heaved as they panted heavily.
"You were incredible Barriss. Your old crush doesn't know what she's missing," Xuadia said, referring to Ahsoka.
"I was wondering if you could give me your expert opinion on something?" Barriss asked.
"And what is that my beautiful girl?" Xuadia asked as she propped herself up with her elbows.
Barriss laid down on top of Xuadia, her large tits smashing against her's.
"What is sex with Lord Vader like?" Barriss asked.
Xuadia looked confused for a moment. But then her eyes flared up and she smiled seductively.
Both girls giggled before they began to make out again.
A couple hours later, with the prison totally overrun, Clone Shadow troopers from the Republic the Coruscant Guard came to clear out the prison.
As the Shadow Troopers began to clear out the prison, deciding not to take prisoners, Barriss and Xuadia made their move to escape the prison.
They snuck past the checkpoints by going through a sewer drain.
They were only wearing their bras and panties underneath their cloaks.
Both ladies walked almost shoulder to shoulder, their hips bumping into each other occasionally.
These two ladies were fugitives from the law. But no one knew where they were, sense the security cameras were deactivated.
And they were on their way to their hideout.
From there, they would carry out the will of their Masters...and make each other scream in ecstasy.

Jabba's Palace, Tatooine, Hutt space.
Darth Vader hated this place.
Every part of this planet gave a horrible feeling of pain and anger every time he came here.
It was where he grew up as a slave.
It was where his mother was killed by sand people.
And know he was here to speak to someone that he hated: a disgusting Hutt slime known as Jabba the Hutt. He was the leader of the Hutt Family, a powerful criminal family that owned almost 1/6 of the galaxy, and some of the most important trade routes in the outer rim.
During the Vong wars, Hutt space was ravaged by the invaders. Right now, the hutts were just a skeleton of what they used to be. At this moment, the Republic military was conducting operations in the region to destroy small Yuuzhan Vong remnants that survived the Malachor event.
Darth Sidious wanted the Hutts to drive out the Republic (diplomatically). It was apart of the Sith Lord's plan. It called for the Republic be be pushed out of the northern outer rim, and isolated to the core and colonies.
That was why Vader was here with Darth Talon, his top assassin and one of several mistresses, on Tatooine.
The disgusting slug sat on his dais, in the middle of his throne room.
He was surrounded by gammorrian guards and visitors, which included bounty hunters and other crime lords.
They all watched the showdown of the century.
The Dark Lord versus the Crime Lord.
"As I'm sure you know by now Jabba, your crime empire is just a shadow if its former self. Now the Republic is moving through your territory for their own gain," Vader said.
"(What are you getting at Sith?)" Jabba asked in his native tongue.
"Your Empire is too expensive to maintain. The Republic left you to be ravaged by the Vong, and they are now only here to use you. They don't respect you," Vader said.
"(And why should I listen to you?)" Jabba asked.
"Because, when we send the Republic to its grave, we are going to build a new galaxy. And you can be apart of it...if you agree to our demands," Vader said.
"(Oh I'm sure we can come to some kind of agreement)," Jabba said as he slowly reached for a button on his dais. It was for a trap door beneath Vader's feet.
Vader took a step back.
Jabba's eyes flared up in surprise. He then felt pressure put on his neck
He gagged and choked as Vader slowly crushed his windpipe.
Darth Talon cringed before she stepped back, half expecting Jabba to explode and get slime everywhere.
Jabba's bounty hunters and bodyguards aimed their weapons at Vader. Talon turned around and ignited her saber, ready to defend her master.
"(Alright Alright. Tell me what you want!)" Jabba coughed out.
Vader released his grip.
Jabba breathed in and out.
Talon and the masters lowered their weapons.
"First of all, you are going to demand that the Republic pull its forces out of Hutt space. Secondly, you are going to give us military access. Thirdly, your bounty hunters are going to serve us whenever we need them. Next, you will give us a sizable amount of your slave population for our own uses. And finally, when the Republic is crushed, you are going to cede northern, southern, and western Hutt space to the Sith Imperium. And in return, we will give you the financial support that you need," Vader said.
For a few moments, Jabba contemplated the offers and demands that Vader just made.
His answer could mean the end of Jabba and possibly the Hutt's Criminal Empire. Or it could mean the continued existence of his Empire.
"(Deal)," he said.
Later, Vader and Talon went outside to board their shuttle. But they didn't leave just yet.
Vader needed to pay a nearby Tusken Raider camp a visit.

Zenoma Sekot, Yuuzhan Vong adopted (and living) homeworld, somewhere in Chiss controlled territory.
Zenoma Sekot.
A planet that the Yuuzhan Vong adopted after the destruction of their original home-world.
It was also said to be alive.
One thing was for sure though: It would soon be dead.
Hundreds of Republic warships were gathered in space.
They faced off against the thousands of Vong Warships that were gathered around Zenoma Sekot.
The majestic triangular warships of the Republic Navy faced off against the bizarre and bulbous Vong warships.
The void between them was empty.
But suddenly, it was filled with Blue and Yellow laser bolts that criss-crossed and travelled at incredible speeds, slamming into the hulls of the opposing ships.
Star-fighters from both sides swooped past each other in a dance of death and chaos. Master Mundi was in a fighter, leading the Republic squadrons into battle against what remained of the Yuuzhan Vong Empire.
Even though the Republic warships were more powerful and advanced, the Vong ships were more numerous and unyielding.
Republic and Vong warships hammered away at each other. Blue lasers bore into the hulls of many Vong ships, while the shields of the Republic fleet glowed and popped.
Explosions were everywhere. Fighters spun out of control. The engines of many ships sputtered and dies, forcing the ships to drift out into space...dead.
Chunks were blown off.
The Vong also used bizarre weapons and to fight the Republic. They had worms that attached to warships, and sucked out all organic life on board. They fired pods into the hulls of other ships, infecting the crews. But by now, Republic warships had developed countermeasures. They blasted them before they got close. And if they were infected, they went on a suicide run, taking the Vong ships with them.
Plo Koon and Governor Tarkin stood on the bridge of the massive Republic Dreadnought, RSV Pride of the Core, overlooking the battle through a holo-map. A hologram of Master Mundi was nearby.
The chaos of the battle could be heard all around them.
"Where are we on that hull breach in sector 17?"
"We've got more of those giant worms heading our way, don't let them attach to the hull".
"More pods incoming!"
"Torpedoes away!"
"Port shields are down!"
"Fire control for the main guns are offline!"
"We won't last longer out here. We'll need reinforcements soon Master Plo," Mundi said as he dodged and swerved through the battle.
"I must agree," Tarkin said. "We're taking too many casaulties. I suggest that we have our ships deploy the Hammer of Dawn".
"No! We need to use the Hammer of Dawn on the surface, and we're too far for it to be effective," Plo Koon said. "Patience. Our reinforcements will be here soon".
About an hour later, the Republic Fleet was being pushed back.
But just when it seemed like the Republic had to retreat, a miracle happened.
"Sir. We're detecting multiple hyperspace signatures. They're coming from Ascendancy territory!" A clone scanning technician called out.
He was right.
Hundreds of blue warships, including a few dozen Star-Destroyers, belonging to the Chiss Ascendancy Navy shot out of hyperspace.
They were right between the Republic and Vong fleets.
Perfect.
The Chiss warships angled their hulls towards the Vong fleet. They then started launching their fighters at the Vong fleet. They were swarmed.
"Attention Republic Warships. This is Admiral Thrawn of the Ascendancy navy. We are here to provide support," Thrawn said.
"We appreciate your assistance Admiral. Now let's finally finish this War," Tarkin said.
"Indeed. We'll let the Vong waste their strength in their attacks before we counter-strike," Thrawn said.
Vong warships exploded, and were continually swarmed by the Chiss.
The isolationist Chiss ascendancy actually fought the Vong long ago, before the Clone Wars. They had experience.
Ascendancy Warships began to hammer away at the Vong ships, and when the Vong returned fire, they were firing at the bottom of the ship's, whose bridge and hangers were safe.
The Chiss commander was inspired by what Commander Ahsoka Tano did at Ryloth during the Clone Wars.
When the Vong warships were being destroyed left and right, or were too damaged to keep moving, the joint Republic-Ascendancy armada pushed the Vong back.
After hours of wiping out the Vong fleet, the Republic fleet gathered in orbit over Zenoma Sekot.
They were preparing to finish the war.
On the Ascendancy flagship, Admiral Thrawn looked out of the destruction brought upon by his forces and the Republic forces.
The Republic Armada hovered over the living Vong planet.
A blue light glowed beneath the hull of every Republic warship the size of a Venator or higher.
After a few moments, a beam was shot out of each ship. They all hit the surface. The beams seemed to connect the planet with the Republic fleet.
They didn't seem to be doing anything. But that's when the beams began to converge on many different points.
Several beams to one spot.
When they met, it caused a brilliant explosion that would send a shockwave in every direction.
It led to a level of destruction that one could survive directly, as all life within those shockwaves were either vaporized, or tuned into ash statues.
This was a testament to the destructive power of the Republic Navy.
Thrawn was impressed to be sure.
But he felt that the Republic was too inefficient to run the galaxy. Much less protect it.
Luckily for him and his people...Darth Sidious offered him an excellent deal. One that would determine the coarse of the Galaxy for years to come.

Republic Holonet broadcast.
"Many people have taken Palpatine's address to heart. All across the northern quadrants of the galaxy, entire planets are rallying their people in opposition to the Republic Military occupation. This new alliance has been called the Outer Rim Alliance, an analgogmy off former CIS planets, pirate worlds, and planets that were devastated by the Yuuzhan Vong War. The capital of the O.R.A. is on the planet Artorias and is led by the King of Artorias, Finn Galfridian. Finn Galfridian was the crown prince before King Caled was killed by the Vong, and before Queen Nina was discovered to be mutated by the Vong Empire along with Princess Kaye. King Finn Galfridian blames the Republic for the loss of his family, and has formed the ORA to protect planets in the outer rim. It is rumored that this Alliance has been giving money and sanctuary to known terrorists. They are also rumored to be in contact with Ex-chencellor Palpatine. Sense many of these planets are former CIS warships, they are rumored to be in possession of large military/industrial stockpiles.
Senate leaders of the Centralist party are again speaking to members of the Dalyell government and leaders of the populist party, to see if they can come to an agreement. And it looks like they did. The Chancellor and Senate have agreed to reactivate the Government if the following are provided:
1. The Republic Military will pull out of the northern Outer Rim and Hutt Space, provided that the Military can maintain Naval bases, scanning stations, and listening posts near the border regions.
2. If the Senate is to begin spending again, they must cut spending towards entitlement programs and begin lowering taxes. Simultaneously, Dalyell must give up his emergency powers and allow the Senate to reduce military spending.
3. The Dalyell government and the Republic doesn't have to recognize the Sith Empire or issue an official thank you for their help in the Vong Wars. But individual Republic planets are free to issue whatever they want to the Sith Imperium.
In other news, the terrorist group known as the Peace Brigade has gone underground after their leadership was arrested. Since then, the riots and terrorist attacks have fallen sharply. And former Jedi Temple bomber, Barriss Offee, has gone missing after a massive riot broke out. And the Yuuzhan Vong remnants have been exiled to their home world, Zenoma Sekot, in Chiss territory after being slagged by a Joint Republic-Ascendancy Fleet."
